Brazil dlr outflow fell to $156 mln on Wed-dealers

Reuters, Thursday, October 01, 1998 at 09:14

SAO PAULO, Oct 1 (Reuters) - Brazil's dollar outflow from
the foreign exchange markets dropped to $156 million on
Wednesday on expectations of some foreign inflows and as
players opted to remain quiet before Sunday's elections,
dealers said.
A meager $14 million fled the commercial market while $142
million left the floating market.
Outflows on Tuesday totaled $455 million.
Brazil has lost more than $30 billion from its currency
markets since the beginning of August as global investors have
pulled out their money on the back of a grave emerging market
crisis.
In the month of September alone, a net $18.876 billion left
the Brazilian forex markets, one of the biggest monthly
outflows in history.
It was not clear how much money had entered the country on
Wednesday, but dealers suspected some foreign companies had
financed their purchases in recently privatized Brazilian
companies.
Dealers said the wave of dollar outflows was expected to
continue today, although players were unlikely to take huge
currency positions ahead of the general elections on Sunday.
